Beauty and Tragedy (Express +) - History Tour
"In Charleston, the past is always present."
For some, there is a lot to see in Charleston, but not always a lot of time. That is why the Beauty & Tragedy (Express +) may be the tour for you! This brisk 90-minute tour will take you through the entire history of the Holy City, from 1670 to the present day.
As we traverse the Historic District and Waterfront, we will explore parks and cobblestone streets, where pirates once walked and duels were fought. Making our way through Philadelphia Alley and Washington Park, you will see the roots of the city itself.
Find out how White Point Garden got its name and what happened during George Washington's Charleston visit. See the city's 1st Congregation and hear the infamous story of the gentleman pirate's final days in town. Learn about Charleston's unlikely abolitionist and how the Four Corners of Law earned its name.
And as an added bonus, free admission to the Historic Powder Magazine is included!
Join a Charleston native on a tour like no other!
